Uedama anti-gank

I agree.

Switch out the neuts for RLM’s or blasters. Or go with medium neuts and 800mm plate. Either works.

1 Medium neut + 3 smalls + 5 Ev-600’s will neut out a Catalyst before Concord though.

A big IF … big anti-AG groups have to spend as much time as gankers themselves but pro bono. This asymmetric mobilization can’t be countered by theorycrafting.

@Aiko_Danuja I would be ganking all day if I wouldn’t play with only one char and like to live in highsec. So I can only do the second best in that game. :wink:

BTW, I‘m disappointed about still being banned from minerbumping channel :sadparrot:

As a open CODE supporter, I must say it would be interesting to see a dedicated AG corp/alliance form to attempt to counter ganking. Complete with all the fixings including donations to reimburse losses (if there are any…maybe bonuses?).

Seems like it would be really dull BUT that 's me…the white knight types might love it…

I’d cloak and kick back with some popcorn and watch the AG fail miserably. Could be quite entertaining…

You need somebody who puts money and management effort into this. If you for example pay every prevented gank the approx. gank value to the AG people it certainly would have a chance. Of course this can be abused and needs some details.

I was just think more of the same thing the Knights have…just a flat-bounty per se for the AG folks…say 10M per dead Cat with no lost miner/hauler. All funded via donations from miners and other AG supporters.

Start in Jita and slowly expand in both area of operations and lore…etc…could be fun for some…

I nominate @Dracvlad to take this challenge on…

There is already an AG alliance which also does war decs too, it is called Astral Battles. I was in it when I was playing Eve. Anyone interested in doing AG activities should contact them. (Note that Knowledgeminer is banned from AG.)

As for your nomination I was doing this until I tried to use the killright system to go after a war decking ganker and found it completely unfit for purpose, in that he got notified immediately when it was assigned and it took an hour for it to activate for us. I gave up on Eve in disgust. Nothing to do with that plonker in Uedama for the record.

Lol, thought they were a ganking group.

They are easy to confuse. Gankers shoot the freighter - antigankers scoop the loot.

They have been known to gank gankers…, the DST’s are quite juicy and produce many tears!

I was totally not bothered about the loot. Was too much hassle to scoop it anyway, my other account was on the other side of the gate just in case…

Can you post screenshots of the “many” tears?

The problem with this idea is that smart industrialists actually want other industrialists to be ganked.

Whether I played as a ganker or anti-ganker or neither, I’d shoot a 32bil Occator too. lol

I’d like to see an AG 2.0, a fresh slate, led by someone who actually knows how to AG, like Knowledgeminer.

I suspect such an effort would lose momentum pretty quickly after they realized they were mostly saving AFK autopiloters that had no idea that they were almost ganked. The type of player that answers their Evemail a year later with “I don’t have any isk to contribute to your cause.”

Great point…

Do you think their might be enough supporters out there of AG efforts to fund their bounty pool? A couple of billions would easily start the ball rolling. As long as AG pilots didn’t expect a “thank you” or a “I learnt my lesson” from all miners/haulers, then it would be more of a “fun” job.

Yeah sure, keep telling yourself that lmao

It would do your health good to admit you got completely dominated by me

Thats not even the gankers dst, its a thieves :joy:

The truth is you were actually doing the ganker a favor :rofl:

Anything is better than their current playerbase. 99% of the past and current agers are some of the most toxic players Ive ever seen in any game, it’s no wonder theyre such a joke and everybody laughs at them.

I doubt it. Aside from the lazy idiots who come to post their latest lossmail hardly anyone cares about ganking. It’s a problem for someone else to worry about, why care if there’s no selfish benefit to be gained from stopping gankers? And Dracvlad/Lucas Kell/etc won’t admit that their cause is hopeless without paying people to help them.

That is a complete pipe dream, Knowledgeminer could not lead any others out of a wet paper bag, he would get out himself but tell everyone else that they are too useless to find the exit.

That was another gankers DST who managed to steal the loot because the freighter hesitated because we were there. It was however a gankers DST that had been used to pick up stuff for Tornado ganks… Get better please.

Show me the loss mails? Can’t find any can you, in your dreams madam.
